Malcha Mahal〔https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8WuyRpWET44〕 was a community house for the people of malcha in 1600 A.D. For a long period of time people of malcha lived in it and later on it was renamed Wilayat Mahal, after Begum Wilayat Mahal of Awadh, who was given the palace by Government of India in May 1985. However, Begum committed suicide by consuming crushed diamonds here on December 10, 2008 at the age of 62. The building is now mostly in ruins, though still inhabited by her daughter Sakina Mahal, and son Prince Ali Raza.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 url = http://expressindia.indianexpress.com/ie/daily/19970610/16150083.html )〕 ==History== Malcha was one of the historical villages around Raisina Hill, which along with Raisina, Todapur, Aliganj, Pillanji, Jaisinghpura, and Kushak villages were moved by the British during the construction of capital New Delhi in 1920s, espcially the Viceroy's House, which is known as the Rastrapati Bhawan (President's House) now. Today, the area comes under the diplomatic enclave of Chanakyapuri, which still has a Malcha Marg (Malcha Road). Villagers of Malcha shifted to Harsana Malcha near Sonipat in neighbouring Haryana state.〔 〕 An historical monument which was built by the peoples of Malcha in 1600 AD. It was built in 11 acres of land and initially was a community house for people living in the village of Malcha (New Delhi). It is now in an upmarket area near Rastrapati Bhawan but when it was built it was not a posh area. When the capital of British India was shifted from Calcutta to New Delhi it was acquired by the government under the Land and acquisition act, 1894. Those who refused to give up their land lost their lives, and those who gave it up were kicked out of New Delhi and had to live a life of misery and poverty in the village of Harsana Patti Malcha in Sonipat (a city in Haryana (India)). After the acquisition the Malcha Mahal was given to a king and queen of Awadh dynasty and renamed Wilayat Mahal. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Malcha Mahal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
